BLACKPINK reveals title song 'DDU-DU DDU-DU' melody concept

YG's BLACKPINK, who made their debut on August 8, 2016, received a lot of attention with their distinctive sound and various charm that differentiated from their songs.

BLACKPINK to return to the stage in 2018 with their long-awaited mini album [SQUARE UP].

Pre-order: BLACKPINK - SQUARE UP album here

'SQUARE UP' is the 'SQUARE' series that BLACKPINK has debuted since its debut. It is in the extension of the debut album 'SQUARE ONE' and the second album 'SQUARE TWO'. This album 'SQUARE UP', which means 'Let's stick' and 'Let's fight', has the message of 'Let's stand up to the challenge' with the more mature and stronger music and the concept of BLACKPINK.

The title song 'DDU-DU DDU-DU' emphasizes the distinctive color of the BLACKPINK with its oriental percussion rhythm and unique whistle-lead sound on top of a powerful trap beat. The appealing bull part, the hook line in the free drop, and the rap in section 2 are enough to bring about the elasticity of the BLACKPINK vocals. As the song unfolds, the spectrum spreads broadly and the destructive power of the "Tootsu Tootsu" armed with a heightened drop is reminiscent of a tank.


TEDDY is a leading producer of music, and TEDDY, 24, R.Tee, and Bekuh Boom are the composers of "TOUGI TOUDU", which presents a new charisma of black-pink that cannot be imitated by the energy that can be felt on tracks along with direct lyrics. We are raising expectations of fans.
BLACKPINK's first mini-album [SQUARE UP], debuted after debut, is based on the dual concept of 'BLACKPINK' as its main concept. It will be available in two kinds. It will be available for sale on June 8th and will be available on YG Select on June 20th.
